Annotation: In 100 Leaders Who Shaped Colonial North America, readers will be fascinated to learn about a variety of people who have played a major role in the development and colonization of North America. Influences upon colonial life and life as we know it today derive from the early English, French, Spanish, Dutch and other leaders who set down the original foundations.

A wide range of leaders are featured, including English leaders such as Miles Standish, Roger Williams, William Penn, Margaret Brent, Anne Hutchinson and James Oglethorpe; French leaders such as Jacques Cartier, Charles La Tour, Samuel de Champlain and Louis Hennepin; Spanish leaders such as Coronado and Juan de Onate; Dutch leaders such as Peter Minuit and Henry Hudson; Native American leaders such as Powhatan and King Philip; and others from around the world.
